"Parkinson's Disease Public Awareness and Education Act."

This bill requires New Jersey's Commissioner of Health to establish a Parkinson's disease public awareness and education program using available funds. The program will develop public outreach campaigns covering disease causes, symptoms, treatment options, and safety concerns; create accessible educational materials for patients and providers; and train healthcare workers, law enforcement, emergency responders, and judicial staff to recognize symptoms and respond appropriately. It mandates the Department of Health to maintain a list of specialized treatment providers with disclaimers about current research limitations, and to publish plain-language information in English and Spanish on its website after consulting with the American Parkinson Disease Association and Rutgers medical experts. The initiative directly affects Parkinson's patients, their caregivers, and public safety and healthcare professionals across New Jersey.
